 COLORADO

What’s not to love about this scenic destination and in the spring in Colorado you get the best of both worlds. You can hit the slopes for some sunny spring skiing or you can venture off to where the Rockies are already thawing out and do some hiking and mountain biking.

One great city to try is Crested Butte where the Grand Lodge at Crested Butte has a cool new program where there’s free airfare with a Friends and Family Fly Free program offered on Delta, American and United Airlines.

Posada La Poza, Mexico

 Best bet for some top spring vacation deals in Mexico is to venture away from the usual tourist destinations and try an authentic Mexican inn because this is where you’ll also find some  substantial savings. A fun place to try is a small inn outside of Los Cabos called Posada La Poza that’s has just 11 rooms situated right on a lagoon.

  • Free Made-Order Breakfast

One question I get asked a lot is how to find all these great specials.

Even if you’re not a travel expert you can still score some of the best travel deals by taking advantage of some new internet sites like www.jetsetter.com.

What I like about Jetsetter is that it’s FREE and has luxury hotel deals listed almost daily that are 30 to 40 percent off the lowest rack rate you’d usually find and these are often exotic hotels truly off the beaten path or five-star favorites where you usually don’t see deals offered.

There’s on catch. In order to use Jetsetter you have to be asked by a current member so it’s very viral.

The folks at Jetsetter were kind enough to give me a special link for all of you in case you want to check out the hot deals so all you have to do is click here and you have free access to some of the hottest spring travel deals out there right now.
